Census Day

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Not sure this article belongs in Wikipedia. This "day" is the day when the census takes place. Is there any more detail than that? Not sure if there's much significance to this day. Natg 19 (talk) 22:54, 17 December 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep Agree there's not much here at present, but it could be the germ of a worthwhile topic: listing for many countries the time of year, day of week, how long Census lasts (in some countries e.g India, it extends over months), what factors determine the decision and who decides, and how these things have varied over past periods. All this should be sourceable Noyster  (talk),  13:59, 30 December 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep – At first I thought WP:OR, no way that secondary sources could be found for this. But if you search on "celebrate Census Day" you find governors declaring it a special day, people gathering in parks, the Victorian Society celebrating the 21st modern census . This seems to be a real thing. – Margin1522 (talk) 17:02, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
